Bom. Harry Hartley Howarth


WWI Armed Forces
In Loving Memory
of
Bom. Harry Hartley Howarth
R.P.A.
Killed in Action Oct 14 1918
Aged 21 years

I have died for the dear homeland
The land of the brave and free
Always remember that, dear mother,
When'er you think of me.

When this sad war is over
And the others come marching home
And you think of your fallen hero,
Who will never more return.

Just look upon them, dear mother,
Though the tears may dim your eyes,
Remember your son was a soldier, too,
And not afraid to die.

From his sorrowing Mother, Sisters, and Brothers.
